Tru-Line Civil is a medium-sized civil construction enterprise based in Christchurch and on the West Coast. Tru-Line is a family owned company, with passionate Powell family members engaged in the management, administration, day-to-day running of key projects and deliverables. Tru-Line Civil have accrued over 100 years’ experience in civil construction over the range of civil works from road building, earthworks, bridge building, and concrete structures, to cable laying, pressure reticulation systems, and piped sewer and stormwater installations. Projects have included a wide array of associated works such as pumping stations, impermeable membrane lining of retention reservoirs, grouted anchor retaining structures, and construction of super-sized concrete reservoir tanks for urban water supply. Well- point dewatering for deep piping systems has become a strength along with construction of complete fully serviced urban housing estates. Lasting industry relationships have been formed over many years across a wide spectrum of industry players including engineering consultants, specialized industry suppliers, and preferred clientele. We constantly strive to improve our service to customers and invest heavily in plant, staff training and career development, supporting management systems and processes that ensure we fulfill our commitments.
Tru-Line Civil Ltd and its predecessors Coastal Constructors have been operating in Civil Contracting for over 29 years in the South Island, following many years in the same type of work in the Waikato. The first branch opened in Greymouth in the early 2000’s and when the earthquake struck Christchurch in 2010 Tru-Line Civil management took advantage of the opportunity for new work and opened a second much larger branch there.
